Sound and Fury
Muhammad Ali and Howard Cosell were must-see TV long before that phrase became ubiquitous. Individually interesting, together they were mesmerizing. They were profoundly different -- young and old, black and white, a Muslim and a Jew, Ali barely literate and Cosell an editor of his university's law review. Yet they had in common forces that made them unforgettable: Both were, above all, performers who covered up their deep personal insecurities by demanding -- loudly and often -- public acclaim. Theirs was an extraordinary alliance that produced drama, comedy, controversy, and a mutual respect that helped shape both men's lives.

Lord Bainbridge
Lord Bainbridge is a love story, but a love story of a different kind. Lord Jeremy Bainbridge is a young Englishman of the upper class. He is also a homosexual in a time when society demanded harsh penalties for those who dared to indulge in the love story that dare not speak its name. But Jeremy Bainbridge is determined to live the life he has been dealt. He finds himself on board the Titanic on her fateful maiden voyage. There, he meets and falls in love with a young Irishman, Tom Kennedy, traveling third class. But then fate, in the form of an iceberg, intervenes and in the ensuing disaster, where millionaires die as easily as liftboys, the two young men struggle to survive, not only against the sea, but against the prejudices that would destroy their relationship.
